Ex-goalkeeper Mohammed Alhassan Throws Concern On Kotoko’s Recent Performance

Ex- goalkeeper of Kumasi Asante Kotoko Mohammed Alhassan has shown concern about the recent performance of the club.

According to Alhassan, the standard of play in the team has fallen, even after the appointment of former gaffer Dr. Prosper Nartey Ogum.

Even though the Porcupine Warriors are gradually finding their feet after recording a back-to-back victory in the ongoing 2023/2024 Betpawa Premier League, Alhassan believes the requirements for recruitment have fallen.

“Kotoko’s standard has fallen because they can’t boast of any top player as compared to previous years. Kotoko had top players like Charles Taylor, Stephen Oduro, Nana Arhin Duah, and others, who won fans to the stadium but the narrative has changed this time. If the team had purchased some experienced players, they could have won fans to the stadium”- he said.

He later disclosed what made him succeed in his playing days and encouraged players to follow suit.

“During my days with Bofoakwa Tano, we used to train three times a day anytime about to engage Kotoko because knew the quality they possessed. We knew of threats from Charles Taylor, Stephen Oduro, and others so anytime you face them you have to prepare well but it is not the same at the moment, Now, clubs can pick maximum points in Kumasi because of fallen standards”- he added.
